Models of neurodegeneration using computational approaches
… to memory loss, are the disruptions of circadian rhythms and spatial disorientation. In the present work I first studied the role of Aβ toxicity by comparing the findings of genome-wide association studies in sporadic AD with the results of an RNAi screen in a transgenic C. elegans model of Aβ …

The Effect of General Anaesthesia on Circadian Rhythms in Mice
… causing timedependent shifts on circadian rhythms of behaviour, physiology, and cognitive parameters. However, due to the lack of consistency in the study design between experiments, the specific effect of GA on circadian rhythms in mammals, and the mechanism by which this occurs, is still …

The role of circadian rhythms in reproduction: development and fertility in the bmal1 null mouse.
Circadian rhythms are the endogenous cycling of hormones, activity patterns and gene expression that occur across 24 hours. Disruption of circadian rhythms has been associated with multiple health complications, including reduction of fertility. The bmal1 mouse provides an animal model for central …

Enviromental influences on the spatio-temporal distribution of Aristeus Antennatus (Risso, 1816) and Aristaeomorpha Foliacea (Risso, 1827) in the Central-Western Mediterranean
… of the middle-slope assemblages as well as the behavioural rhythms of the deep water red shrimps. Their daily and nocturnal movements from the base of the seamount to the edge of the continental shelf increase the range of their distribution. This results highlights the fact that shrimps and …
